It’s simple:

Beat the population into learned-helplessness,

& then all the AI molestingware that the device can run, can be running in it.

Desensitization/enforced-learned-helplessness.

It’s just a conditioning-step, is all.

The profit is in having the population not have any privacy left, & living only within the neuromarketing-platforms that the mainstream operating-systems are becoming.

It’s just a step in the suckerpunching humankind, is all.

He understands.

So, East Germany, basically, with tech.

To the best of my knowledge, back-propagation IS learning, whether it’s happening in a neural-net on a chip, or whether we’re doing it, through feedback, & altering our understanding ( so both hard-logic & our wetware use the method for learning, though we use a rather sloppy implimentation of it. )

& altering the relative-significances of concepts IS learning.

( I’m not commenting on whether the new-relation-between-those-concepts is wrong or right, only on the mechanism )

so, I can’t understand your position.

Please don’t deem my comment worthy of answering: I’m only putting this here for the record, is all.

Everybody can downvote my comment into oblivion, & everything in the world’ll still be fine.

You don’t have to do ANYthing in order to have copyright on your images.

That is standard throughout the Berne convention & has been for decades.

Registering makes court-cases easier to win, but having copyright on one’s renditions isn’t in any way requiring that one have registered anything with anybody.

Wasn’t there a competitor named Mattermost?

a FLOSS competitor?

Consider trying lots of washing-soda in your water-based cleaner: if it’s alkali enough, rust shouldn’t be happening…

A question to consider, in the frame-of-reference of these 10:

What are the rights of rabies-virus?

It is a form of life, so it must have rights, then, yes?

Smallpox?

Ebola?

Bloodworms?

Cancer?

Malfunctions happen, chaotically: including malfunctions in genetics, in evolution, in ecology, etc.

Sometimes correction is required.

Within an individual, within a population, or within an entire-ecology.

This 10 doesn’t allow that.

( also, it is life, not existence, which is the fundamental-validity: lumps of lead exist, they aren’t living )

just the opinions of an autistic rando, is all:

pay no attention to meanings of mine.

Decades ago, I discovered that there are 4 dimensions that need to be covered, in balance, in community news:

• the Strategic issues, 7+y as a rough guideline, for significance
• the Tactical issues, 1-3y as a rough guideline
• the little Pervasive annoyances that never get given a headline, but are a “tax” on people’s wellbeing
• Grow The Good!! community, culture, accomplishments, anchoring people’s hope, humanity, validity, etc.

Leaving-out any 1 of those 4 dimensions has long-term costs.

this is just what one autist discovered, it doesn’t mean you have to think there’s any validity in the concept.

1. insightful question,

2. it isnt just the internet, in case you hadn’t noticed, it is ALL civil-rights that are being gutted, in the enshittocene.

“once the infection has moved the ‘fulcrum’, the balance between the involuntary-host & the infection, far enough, it can then switch from symbiosis to totalitarian rampaging growth-at-any-cost, excluding-all-vital-functions, enforcing its parasitic & fatal consumption, killing the patient”

A tipping-point is being crossed, though it’s taking a few decades ( planets are slower than individual-animals, in experiencing infection ).

It’s our rendition of The Great Filter, in-which we enforce that we can’t be viable, because factional-ideology “needs” that we break all viability from the world.

Or, to be plainer, it is our race’s unconscious toddler setting-up a world-breaking tantrum, to “BREAK GOD AND MAKE GOD OBEY” its won’t-grow-up.

Read Daniel Kahneman’s “Thinking Fast & Slow”, & see how the imprint->reaction mind, Kahneman1 ( he calls it “System 1”, but without context, that’s meaningless ) substitutes easy-to-answer questions for the actual questions…

The more you read that book, the most important psychology book in the whole world, right now, the more obvious it is that Ideology/prejudice/assumption-river/religion/dogma is doing all it can to break considered-reasoning ( Kahneman2 ) from the whole world, and it is succeeding/winning.

“Proletariat dictatorship” the Leninists want, “populist dictatorship” the fascists want, religious totalitarianism, political totalitarianism, ideological totalitarianism, etc, it’s all Kahneman1 fighting to break considered-reasoning from the whole world, and the “disappearing” of all comments criticizing Threads from the Threads portion of the internet … is perfectly normal.

It’s simply highjacking of our entire civilization, by the systems which want exclusive dominion.

Have you checked your youtube account’s settings section, in the history section, to see what percentage of your comments have been disappeared??

Do it.

Everybody do it.

Discover how huge a percentage of your contribution to the “community” got disappeared, because it wasn’t what their algorithm finds usefully-sensationalistic, or usefully-pushing-whatever-they-find-acceptable.

I spent a few hours deleting ALL my comments from there, after seeing that around 1/2 of what I’d contributed had been disappeared.

There are a few comments now, but … they’ll be removed, either by yt or by me, soon.

No point in pretending that meaning is tolerable, anymore, you know?

Only fakery & hustle remains, for most of the internet, & that transformation’s going to be complete, in a few years.

1984, but for-profit.

Sorry for the … dim … view, but it’s been unfolding for a couple decades, & it’s getting blatent, fast.

Light.

Absolutely stupendous quantities of high-quality, full-spectrum light.

Live in a light-box.

There is a circuit which goes from pigmented-ganglia ( black-pigmented nerve-endings ) in our retinas, into our brains.

That sensor-system is rather dull, unlike the rods & cones.

Rig a room’s light-switch so that when you flick it, suddenly you’re saturated in sufficient light to cross your light-threshold, about 1/2 second later, it’s like vital aliveness kicked into your brain.

I’ve replicated the experiment, and I’ve gotten others to do it, too.

One non-obvious thing, though:

Because when we’re in the dark, we can’t remember what it felt-like to have that light-brain circuit activated ( the SAD-treatment lights are intended to cross this threshold: it’s the same mechanism ), so therefore, to treat profound, long-term depression, you NEED to get tons of lights onto a timer, & use that as your “alarm clock”.

It works.

It’d save many lives, if doctors would admit it is actual, evidence-based medicine, but that’d gut billions of dollars of psychiatric-industry, so … that won’t ever happen.

( dad was a medical-researcher & doctor: I remember the grudge/hatred when the Australian researcher violated psychiatry’s established “ulcers are a psychiatric illness” dogma, with evidence showing that ulcers are created by pylorii bacteria.

Paychiatry won’t ever do the experiment, they won’t admit it works, they won’t tolerate anybody claiming it works, etc.

Religion is religion, and my autistic-empiricism has no validity in their reality.

Do the experiment, though, & you’ll see that it actually tests to be true. )

• Spez got paid, according to that, $193,000,000 last year as CEO.

• reddit “never turned a profit”.

I can’t imagine the corruption/anti-integrity required to reconcile those 2 facts.

How come he isn’t in jail, for fraud??

My comment isn’t on your script, it is on paper-selection…

Please have several, orthogonal, selection-systems:

• most-cited,

• most trustworthy researchers

• most unique area of research, or most unique question, or something

• most central to new tech

• most central to old tech

• most undernoticed, big potential… ( things that should be big news, but the global novelty-addiction ignores it )

• best fundamental science ( definitely include this category! )

• best citizen-science

etc…

iow, the algorithm that most use, which is “paying attention to what others are paying attention to” is an algorithm we shouldn’t be assigning our viability to, you know?

Also, you may need to make a flexible-limit for dumbing-down, as some papers may have a higher limit and others a lower limit, so some could be easy for most to get the sense of, but some might be tricky … and it might well do more good to let them have their different thresholds, see?
